Bengtie: A Genius's Out-of-the-Domain Idea

Lin Yi, whose "Phase Walker" is already damaged, naturally has to use it carefully to prevent the damage from worsening, which is why he is struggling so much now.

In conclusion—it's all Aha's fault.

Lin Yi was buying time for the "Phase Walker" in order to gain an advantage in setting up spatial gates and spatial barriers in order to block the attack that was about to occur.

To prevent the attack that Deckardar uses to escape from his trap from causing irreversible and severe damage to the planet beneath our feet.

He will use a spatial portal to send away the main part of the attack, and a spatial barrier to block the aftershocks; this will take time.

Finally, they couldn't delay any longer. But their piecemeal tactics still bought them 14 minutes of extra time.

Through the spatial barrier, Lin Yi saw that after Deckarda began to move, he took out the "Game of Life" he had found earlier.

The artifact "Game of Life". Lin Yi replicated the data of the legendary Punk Lord from the Black Tower's artifact "Punk Lord Spirit".

He then inscribed it as a light cone. Fortunately, "Moment of Eternity" recognized the 'preciousness' and 'beauty' of this memory, and Lin Yi successfully created that light cone.

Then, with considerable effort, this light cone and half of the incomplete "Key of Wisdom" were reforged into a brand new artifact, "Game of Life".

The "Key to Wisdom" is a unique token of genius, and a gift from the Venerable One of Wisdom, a precious item bestowed upon each genius at the moment they join the Genius Club.

Even though the light emanating from the "Key to Wisdom" is dazzling, ordinary people cannot see even a glimmer of its brilliance; only beings who possess the light of wisdom can perceive it.

This has led to ongoing debate around the world about whether the "key to knowledge" actually exists.

In a sense, the Key to Knowledge can be considered an intelligence detector similar to The Emperor's New Clothes, except that it's the reverse of The Emperor's New Clothes.

Such a precious item has endless uses.

To inspire wisdom, spark creativity, accelerate thinking, and dispel fallacies. To maximize the strengths of geniuses—their wisdom.

With it, the inspiration that ordinary people painstakingly seek is nothing more than the ordinary thoughts that flash through the minds of geniuses thousands of times per second.

Even though the geniuses before this thing existed weren't much different.

Like the Black Tower, she has turned her "Key of Wisdom" into a "staff" and started playing with "magic".

The creation of the "Phase Walker" was entirely inspired by the Black Tower's "staff".

In short, the "Key to Wisdom" is the icing on the cake for geniuses, as taught by the "Master of Knowledge".

But this thing is extremely important to Lin Yi. He has grown from an ordinary person to the point where he believes his achievements are worthy of the title of 'genius'.

Lin Yi put in a great deal of effort, which was also made possible by the help of his unique Key of Wisdom.

After creating the "Phase Walker", Lin Yi overlapped and made compatible with his "Key of Wisdom".

This is the fundamental reason why he can manipulate "Phase Walker" at will and play with space and phase in so many ways.

Because it was like his third hand, as easy to use as his own arm, and he could control it at will.

His spiritual key was highly bound to his true self. In a sense, that "key of wisdom" was a high-level representation of the individual 'Lin Yi'; it was an extension of the wisdom of the individual 'Lin Yi'.

Even if the soul perishes, as long as the unique spiritual key belonging to him remains intact and still shines, his spirituality and wisdom can be preserved.

The key to knowledge anchors the wisdom of genius—

The genius's self anchors the key to knowledge—

A genius's wisdom anchors their genius self—

The three have achieved a stable, interdependent relationship.

This is the last refuge that Bo Shizun has given to the geniuses of the Genius Club in times of crisis.

As long as wisdom endures, thought will never perish, even if the physical body is abandoned.

The thoughts and spirituality of genius will forever coexist with the destiny of knowledge and the venerable wisdom.

(Not bad, I managed to write a little over two chapters today, so I'll post one more. Tomorrow I'll be on the train, and the internet will be slow, so I'll probably only be able to write novels to pass the time. Okay, off to farm points now~)

Chapter 39 Eternal Wisdom

It would be a great pity if such brilliant wisdom were to be trapped in a short life or perish unexpectedly.

Thus, the learned and virtuous generously shared the destiny of knowledge with geniuses, or rather, with the wisdom of geniuses.

He is not worried that a genius will surpass Him and take His place; on the contrary...

He might even welcome and desire this outcome, for it would signify the birth of a new and higher wisdom.

Thanks to His generosity, the path of knowledge is broadened every time a new genius is born, for genius is an extension of the wisdom of the All-Knowing One, and is a part of the All-Knowing One.

Every time a genius falls, the humanity of the wise man grows a little more; he is no longer just a big machine head that knows only thinking, because genius is where his humanity lies.

Or rather, He was never just a big, thinking machine head from the beginning.

Zandal I-Kuwabara, this first genius, not only created the body of the erudite one, but also constituted His original humanity.

As Ladio said, "Geniuses shine like stars, while mediocre ones can only trudge along," but the same is true for the genius of Erudite.

The wisdom of the Venerable Master is like a constellation of shining stars, leaving 'geniuses' to wander alone, able to admire but never reach.

Ordinary people are numerous, and they can encourage each other, share weal and woe, and move forward together.

Geniuses are few in number, and they often struggle to even team up and brainstorm together, making them all the more lonely in comparison.

But is it possible that as one genius after another is born; as years pass by; as the number of geniuses truly becomes as numerous as the shining stars?

To what extent will the future of knowledge be broadened then?

Human knowledge must have already surpassed divine wisdom, or perhaps divine wisdom was, in fact, human knowledge from the very beginning.

At that time, intellect will acquire the humanity constructed by geniuses and become 'human'.

Perhaps the Heaven of Good Vision of Fuli has the good fortune to preserve that precious "human creation plan," the logic that Zandal inscribed for the celestial computer he personally forged on the day it ascended, before it became a god.

The half of the "Key of Wisdom" used to create "Game of Life" did not belong to Lin Yi.

Rather, it was a chance discovery during interstellar travel. Now that I think about it, it was probably this half of the "Key to Wisdom" that came to him on its own initiative.

Normally, the "Key to Wisdom" only exists in its complete form and would never appear in such a half-crippled state.

As long as the genius is alive, the "Key to Knowledge" will not be damaged and will not leave the genius's side.

When a genius falls, the "Key to Knowledge" also disappears without warning, as if it had never existed.

Lin Yi is currently unable to understand the principle behind the "Key to Wisdom" being in a partially damaged state.

It is impossible to discern which genius it once belonged to, nor is it known whether this unknown genius is still alive.

However, it wasn't entirely without gains. Research revealed that this "Key to Wisdom" was slowly disappearing at an extremely low rate.

Lin Yi had tried to maintain its existence and prevent the "Key to Wisdom" from spontaneously dissipating, but the result was obvious: Lin Yi failed.

So he crafted this "Key to Wisdom" into a rare artifact, hoping it would be preserved for a long time, or at least serve some purpose if he failed.

Unlike now, it can almost only be used as a decoration, because it is not Lin Yi's spirit key and cannot be used by him.

This is how "Nothing But a Game" came to be.

And the effects of this strange object are also very powerful, making Lin Yi's efforts worthwhile.

Its function is to overwrite reality. Once activated, it can gamify the world, turning life into a game.

(Silver Wolf is overjoyed)

This is a game perspective unique to one person; no one else will notice anything amiss. Everything external will be rationalized, and everything internal will be gamified.

And the benefits of such advantages are self-evident.

The fact that it can fix the 'boss's' feet and eliminate its own fatal weaknesses already makes it extremely valuable.

Lin Yi's concept for creating "Game Life" is: If you're all in Honkai Impact 3rd, how can you not play turn-based games!

Now, Lin Yi took it out precisely to increase his margin for error in the upcoming battle. After all, he wasn't lying; he really wasn't good at martial arts and had extremely low combat intelligence.

The opponent looks very capable; their combat skills and combat intelligence must be very high.

Lin Yi started his game life, and everything went smoothly as if nothing had happened.

But Lin Yi knew that the world had quietly changed, or rather, the world centered on him and viewed from his perspective had changed.

"Playing with Life" also has its limits. Lin Yi experimented with the Black Tower's original form, and it was still effective on the Great Black Tower, the intelligent messenger, but it would be severely distorted.

Simply put, the 'game' has a bug.

Therefore, it can be preliminarily determined that the limit of interference of "No Game No Life" is the "Rei-shi" (or "Rei-shi"), and the reality it replicates will be greatly interfered with by the existence of the "Rei-shi".

However, Lin Yi did not believe that this Dekalla had the strength of the Black Tower.

"No Game No Life" should be quite effective against Deckarda.

In the distance, Dekala raised his thunder spear high and swung it, unleashing a terrifying beam of light.

The terrifying beam of light pierced through all the recursive spaces, and the aftershocks leveled the remaining fragments of space that had been continuously fractured by the piercing, leaving no chance for the recursive spaces to be reconstructed.

The beam of light, having pierced through space, continued its powerful trajectory towards Lin Yi on the ground.

From the perspective of "No Game No Life": The boss, Mad King O Dekalla, resides in the sky. When you unleash his charged attack "Uniform O Yin," he swings his lightning spear. Black mist, tinged with the purple light of the star core, gathers at the tip of the spear as it surges from an unknown source.

This attack is easy to dodge, but impossible to dodge. Dodging would mean facing the entire planet "Kaspelling VIII" head-on. Given that this planet's interior is full of hollows... the consequences are unpredictable.

From the perspective of "No Game No Life": Activating the exclusive equipment "Phase Walker" skill: Spatial Control, creating a unique battlefield environment, the spiral...

A triangular portal, three times larger than the one that previously carried the space-destroying cannon fired by the anti-planet weapon, appeared three meters directly in front of Lin Yi.

Another triangular spatial portal emerged from the previous one, seemingly detached from it, but twice the size of the previous triangle.

The two beams began to rotate in opposite directions, forming an awkward six-pointed star.

Then the large triangle stretches forward, growing larger as it goes forward, while the small triangle rotates backward, becoming smaller and constantly differentiating, as if firmly rooted in the void.

A large, uniquely shaped, diamond-shaped trumpet appeared.

It was a unique shape, with an equilateral triangular pyramid at the front and a spiral tail forming a fractal structure, much like the Gulliver's Tunnel.

Chapter 40 'Picked up' in front of Fu Li

It continuously absorbed the attacks from afar, remaining unmoved.

All of these attacks were teleported away, but Lin Yi didn't know exactly where they were sent.

All I know is that it's an uninhabited star system, and there just happens to be a Destroyer Legion there. Bombing it would be a waste, so I'll just consider it a free favor to them.

The remaining aftershocks were neutralized by the spatial barrier.

Within the massive spatial barrier lay a scorched wasteland.

A gentle breeze rustled the wildflowers beyond the spatial barrier.

After completing all this, to Lin Yi's astonishment, the "Phase Walker" that had accompanied him for many years snapped in two.

"No Game No Life" Perspective: Equipment "Phase Walker" Durability Returns to Error ■■■■■

The load caused by the previous phase unfolding was far more severe than Lin Yi had imagined.

I don't know what's wrong with "No Game No Life," or what part of "Phase Walker" has exceeded "No Game No Life's" interference limit. It has never happened before.

This time, they squeezed out the last bit of "Phase Walker's" power.

Sensing that the Key of Wisdom had detached from the "Phase Walker" and returned to his own body, Lin Yi knew that the damage to the "Phase Walker" this time was truly severe.

At the same time, there was no time to feel sorry for the breakage of the "Phase Walker".

He could only glance at the "Phase Spirit Fire" and saw that the flame was still intact, indicating that the worst had not yet happened.

The precious materials used in its creation, sufficient to contain and contain the spiritual fire, and to guide and release its interference with space and phase, were all rendered useless.

Such precious materials are really hard to find; Lin Yi would feel the pinch for a long time.

I need to go back and re-make one, and I'll have to slowly get used to it to regain that same effortless feeling as before.

Lin Yi didn't have time to feel sorry for the broken "Phase Walker" because in the instant the aftershocks of the attack subsided, Lin Yi seemed to see two completely different worlds.

One perspective told him: Dekala sat high in the sky, his throne formed by the broken tower, glaring at him menacingly, glancing sideways at Lin Yi.

A purplish-black spear materialized in his hand, its shape remarkably similar to the spire of the Great Curtain Tower. With each swing, endless lightning unleashed, forming a winding celestial river that firmly held the heavens aloft.

From the perspective of "No Game No Life": Deckard shouts from the heavens: The towering tower has fallen, and it has been forged into the throne of the heavens, you jackals! You jackals! Do not cross the line.

From another perspective, Lin Yi saw an incredibly illusory humanoid phantom in that location.

The figure lay on the grass holding a book, surrounded by birdsong and fragrant flowers. Two unpredictable vortexes, one black and one white, circled the world, seemingly both a guardian and a shackle.
